Used Ford Cars for Sale near Alberta

A lot of people make out the Pinto as a joke. However, I thought mine was nothing short of fabulous. I bought a '72 Pinto new in September of '72 after my Fiat bankrupted me. It was a 'Bare-Bones' unit, with the 2.0L engine, 4-Speed manual. I beat the thing unmercifully for four years and 84,000 miles and it NEVER broke or let me down. I'd love to have another some day!

It is a great car for kicking around town. your not going to burn rubber off the light, but you will draw attention cruising around in it as people see it and relive a little of their youth. its a reliable car and the motors will live forever. maintenance is so easy under the hood the car is wide open (partially because of the tiny motor). great car. i would recommend to anybody.

Liked that it was reliable (even after the timing belt broke; nothing was damaged and a new belt had it back on the road). Didn't like the paint, lack of power, and the stigma of being a Pinto owner was hard to deal with as a kid.

How can you talk bad about your first car? Yeah there were things wrong with it (this one didn't have the ejecting gas tank) but if it ever stranded me anywhere, I could fold down the seats and sleep in the back.

I drove my Pinto into the ground and when I was done with it the guy I sold it to put in a new camshaft and drove it for another 5-6 years. You just can't really kill a Pinto...they always come back...the original zombie!!!
